    It is starting to get busy on the roads.  Watch out for freezing fog and ice if you're out and about.

    Here are some of the latest traffic hot spots:

    • A1 West Yorkshire: A1 in Darrington busy but moving and heavier than usual traffic northbound at the A1(M) J40 junction

    • A64 North Yorkshire: Heavy traffic on A64 Seamer Road in Scarborough at the Hinderwell Road junction, because of a traffic light failure in the roadworks area  

  3. York flood inquiry calls for better public warning system

    Better flood warning systems need to be put in place in York, according to a new 120-page report into severe flooding in the city at Christmas 2015.

    Many of the city's businesses and homes are still coming to terms with the loss and devastation. 

    The York Independent Flood Inquiry has made more than 80 recommendations.  

    Those recommendations include:

    • The Environment Agency should discuss decisions such as opening the Foss Flood Barrier with other organisations
    • The agency should consider using loudhailers and sirens along the River Foss    

    We'll have more on this story throughout the morning.

    • And traffic is reported to be building up on the A616 eastbound in Tankersley at the Wentworth Business Park roundabout
